Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS CPT RSOI 202003
The Study in the United States Advising Network for South Africa opportunity is a U.S. Department of State grant/cooperative agreement solicited by the Public Affairs Section (PAS) at the U.S. Consulate General in Cape Town. It seeks an organization to build and run an expanded nationwide network of education advisers across South Africa who can guide prospective students on how to apply for tertiary (postsecondary) study in the United States. The program is designed to raise interest in U.S. higher education, improve access to reliable and high-quality advising about U.S. study options and application processes, and ultimately increase both the number of South African students who apply to U.S. institutions and the number who actually enroll.
The funding mechanism is discretionary, offered as either a grant or a cooperative agreement, under CFDA 19.040. The opportunity anticipates making one award, with a maximum (ceiling) amount of USD 250,000. While the eligibility line is listed broadly as "Others" (with further clarification referenced in the full announcement), the solicitation is clearly aimed at organizations that can credibly demonstrate the reach, staffing, partnerships, and operational capacity to coordinate an advising network spanning multiple locations and audiences throughout the country.
A key feature of this opportunity is that it uses a two-stage application process. The first stage requires submission of a Statement of Interest (SOI), which functions as a concise concept note limited to a maximum of 8 pages, plus an accompanying budget. In the SOI, applicants are expected to explain why their organization is uniquely qualified to deliver the project, describe how they would implement the required activities (including how the adviser network would be established, managed, and sustained during the project period), and present a realistic budget aligned to the proposed approach. PAS Cape Town will review SOIs for eligibility and strength, and only selected applicants will be invited to submit a full proposal in the second stage.
For applicant support and clarification, PAS Cape Town encouraged prospective applicants to join an informational teleconference scheduled for May 21 (time to be determined in the announcement), with the recommendation that participants read the full notice beforehand to ask more targeted questions. Submissions are to be emailed to capetowngrants@state.gov. The opportunity was created on May 11, 2020, with an original closing date of June 11, 2020, and is identified by Funding Opportunity Number DOS CPT RSOI 202003.Apply for DOS CPT RSOI 202003
